Avocado Season Notecards (5 pack)

Nicole Simmons is a painter who loves to create abstracts, portraits, and non-objective art and lives in Harrisburg PA. Her favorite general color is yellow and her favorite color to use in my artwork is ultramarine blue. How much time she spends on a piece varies. If she is in the zone, it could take less than a week. If not, it could take months. I have many pieces that I've started and am still "thinking about", Nicole feels like the thinking and resting part is also a really important part of the process - just because it doesn't resonate fully with her now doesn't mean she won’t have a great idea for it a year from now! Currently, Nicole is interested in sculpting and collage. She loves the idea of getting her hands dirty and making something in a different way when it comes to clay sculpting. Some surprise about Nicole is that she has many varied interests--from anime to heavy metal to Kpop. Nicole is also interested in earning about artificial intelligence and the future of health. As for the younger artists out there, Nicole says “Don't focus too much on boxing yourself in when it comes to "your voice" as an artist. I see so many artists pigeonholing themselves into one process or one type of artwork, but art is about being free and breaking rules, and conveying the things you want to convey--and all of what that means changes over time. So, allow yourself the space to change--especially in the beginning.” When it comes to art supplies, Nicole loves Blick's but also recently just found a local art store called the Art Depot that sells a lot of nifty things.
